I need to speak to an IRS representative about my Federal return. I know I can check the status online and by phone but I need to speak to somebody. The numbers I've tried don't give me an option to speak to anybody. Gives me the status and disconnects. Does anyone have a number that will let me speak to a representative?? I've tried 1-800-829-4477 and 1-800-829-1040. The local office doesn't give information over the phone. Thanks for any advice.
i am in the same boat i need to speak to a live person and only numbers I can find are the same you have and always just give me what I already know. Grrr...
It's so aggrivating but at least I know I'm not alone. I thought maybe I wasn't going thru the correct options. I'm sure by now I've tried all of them. The recording gives the hours representatives are available to speak to you.....but doesn't connect.
Saw this online. Different number. Good luck. From the link: 1-866-234-2942 when u call the rebate hotline press 1 then don't press 1 or 2 at all just wait then you'll be connected to a live person. http://answers.yahoo.com/question/i...g_ikH.ikxQt.;_ylv=3?qid=20080505222805AAzIQRC
Firefly - thanks for your help. I did get thru to a representative with the # you gave. I stayed on hold 25 minutes but it was worth it.
If the number doesn't work you can always do what I do when I need to talk to them. Just claim a deduction that you donated $30K to the 4042 Freewill Cowboy Church. They will contact you in no time.
Is there a way to check the status of your state refund check? I found the federal and it should be in my bank tomorrow.
